Take in a lesser-visited region of Asia on this 12-day group tour from Shanghai. Explore the main sights of the city, including the Bund and the French Concession, before flying to Kunming in Yunnan Province. Visit the lesser-known destinations of Pu'er and Xishuangbanna, enjoying hiking opportunities, meeting minority Dai people and embarking on an included tea making experience. In Laos, enjoy guided sightseeing in Luang Prabang and free time to explore the capital, Vientiane.
I haven't quite absorbed all of what I have experienced on this trip. The animals, birds, insects and vegetation we saw is almost overwhelming. I have gained a stronger appreciation for this world we live in because of this trip. I will definitely take another National Geographic G Adventures tour in the future.

I went on the 12 day Thailand trip - absolutely amazing. Koh Phangan especially was so nice, and the temples in Bangkok and evening boat tour in Koh Phi Phi was amazing (especially seeing the bioluminescent plankton at night!). Michelle (my tour leader) was especially incredible, she made the trip so fun and was there for any worries I had. Big shout out to our local tour guide too, Nana, who was super funny and super interesting to learn about the local Thai culture. It was my first time doing a tour like this, and Ive already booked a second tour with intro next summer! All in all, incredible trip! Cannot recommend enough.

I have completed the 12 day Bali intro and it was an amazing trip that I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of travelling. The group leader was great and made sure that everyone knew what was going to be happening, and what activities we would be doing each day, and was also very friendly and approachable with any questions throughout the trip. She also helped everyone with their onward travel after the trip finished.
During the trip we got to visit a local family that made us the most amazing lunch (easily the best food I ate whilst in Bali), which is something I just would not have been able to experience if travelling solo without the tour group.
We also had some free time on a few days, but during that time you can choose to go off and do some other activities that aren;t included too, so we all went scuba diving and had so much fun swimming alongside the tropical fish and the turtles.
The group of people that were on the trip were also brilliant and we all got along so well and enjoyed doing all the activities together, and had a lot of fun when staying at the villa in lovina, playing games in the infinity pool overlooking the gorgeous landscapes, and then relaxing with an Indonesian BBQ and some games by the campfire in the evening.
Overall I would highly recommend this trip to anyone, and can;t wait to get my next one booked! :)
I did the 12 day tour of Vietnam and I cant recommend it enough! It was amazing to see so many different places (Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh). Our leader Lauren was brilliant, she is so helpful and knowledgeable about everywhere we visited. She was also just great fun! Cant wait to do another intro tour in the future.

My girlfriend and I just finished the 12 day Bali Experience. Traveling in a group setting has been a new experience for me, but Cameron as our group leader was great! Looking forward to another trip with Intro.

Fantastic vacation. This tour was an excellent introduction to Vietnam; it made us eager to return and explore the country further. The transfers from the airport, hotel and on-the-day excursions were all seamless. We packed so much into our trip and saw so many incredible sites. The experience was fantastic for our children. We can't speak highly enough of the care we received from this company. Cheapest vacation ever!

This was a great holiday. The 16 of us made of 4 different families felt like an extended family that bonded very well. The CEO was also great, very attentive and knowledgable of her country. We bring back great memories.
